Boeing F/A-18F "Rhino" du Strike Fighter Squadron 94 (VFA-94) "Mighty Shrikes" - “E Pluribus Unum” - 250th anniversary USA
/image%2F1488707%2F20260622%2Fob_16b3fb_vfa-94-250th-170303-725757224-13881245.jpg)
Décoration spéciale appliquée sur un Boeing F/A-18F "Rhino" du Strike Fighter Squadron 94 (VFA-94) "Mighty Shrikes" du Carrier Air Wing Seventeen (CVW-17) de l' United States Navy (USN) affecté à l' USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) et basé à NAS Leemore et portant la décoration spéciale "1776/2026" sur le flanc, "250" dans la dérive eu l'inscription "E PLURIBUS UNUM" sur le bidon pour célébrer les 250 ans des États-Unis d'Amérique. La mention "E Pluribus Unum" est la devise en latin qui apparaît sur le Grand sceau des États-Unis. Ce sceau est utilisé comme emblème de facto des États-Unis, apparaissant notamment sur les documents officiels comme les passeports. Il apparaît également sur les sceaux du président, du vice-président, du Congrès et de la Cour suprême (qui sont très proches du Grand sceau). On la retrouve aussi sur la monnaie du pays, et sur la fresque de l'apothéose de George Washington au plafond de la rotonde du Capitole. "E Pluribus Unum" littéralement « un parmi plusieurs » ou, dans une traduction plus directe, "De plusieurs, un" (corrélation avec la devise L'union fait la force). Cette devise réfère à l'intégration des Treize Colonies en une fédération unifiée. Le fait que l'expression E pluribus unum comporte treize lettres rend son utilisation symbolique des Treize Colonies originelles qui se sont rebellées contre la domination de la Grande-Bretagne et sont devenues les treize premiers États de l'Union, représentés aujourd'hui par les treize bandes du drapeau américain.
Special livery applied to a Boeing F/A-18F "Rhino" from Strike Fighter Squadron 94 (VFA-94) "Mighty Shrikes" of Carrier Air Wing Seventeen (CVW-17) of the United States Navy (USN), assigned to the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) and based at NAS Leemore, featuring the special "1776/2026" livery on the fuselage, "250" on the vertical stabilizer, and the inscription "E PLURIBUS UNUM" on the fuselage to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States of America. The phrase “E Pluribus Unum” is the Latin motto that appears on the Great Seal of the United States. This seal is used as the de facto emblem of the United States, appearing notably on official documents such as passports. It also appears on the seals of the President, the Vice President, Congress, and the Supreme Court (which are very similar to the Great Seal). It can also be found on the country’s currency and on the fresco depicting the Apotheosis of George Washington on the ceiling of the Capitol Rotunda. “E Pluribus Unum” literally means “one among many” or, in a more direct translation, “Out of many, one” (corresponding to the motto “Unity is strength”). This motto refers to the integration of the Thirteen Colonies into a unified federation. The fact that the phrase “E pluribus unum” consists of thirteen letters makes its use symbolic of the original Thirteen Colonies that rebelled against British rule and became the first thirteen states of the Union, represented today by the thirteen stripes on the American flag.
